I know this is the subject of many debates:deadhorse , but does anyone have experience with this setup? I just want a little more ground clearance on my 2wd with some more aggressive, larger tires.
Can this be done without hacking the bumper? thanks all:smokin:

ok, some might not believe me, but here is the god honest truth.

2wd silverado, with 3 inch spindle lift, will clear 285s on 16x8(4.5BS), with only minor trimming of the front plastic valance. bout 1/4 inch of trimming will make for NO rubbing at all.


my buddy runs this exact setup.
